This tool can be used in the right hand or the left hand.
Adjusting the sawing angle (fi g. C)
◆
Use a square to check that the angle between the saw
blade and the shoe is 90°. If the angle does not measu-
re 90° adjust as follows:
◆
Loosen the locking knob (19) to unlock the saw shoe.
◆
Loosen the locknut (20) on the adjusting screw (21).
◆
Screw the adjusting screw in or out to achieve a 90°
angle.
◆
Retighten the locknut.
◆
Tighten the locking knob to lock the saw shoe in place.
Adjusting the depth of cut (fi g. D)
The depth of cut should be set according to the thickness
of the workpiece. It should exceed the thickness by approx.
2 mm.
◆
Loosen the knob (20) to unlock the saw shoe.
◆
Move the saw shoe (6) into the desired position. The
corresponding depth of cut can be read from the scale
(21).
◆
Tighten the knob to lock the saw shoe in place.
Adjusting the bevel angle (fi g. E)
This tool can be set to bevel angles between 0° and 45°.
◆
Loosen the locking knob (19) to unlock the saw shoe.
◆
Move the saw shoe (6) into the desired position. The

Sawing
Always hold the tool with both hands.
◆
Let the blade run freely for a few seconds before
starting the cut.
◆
Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while perfor-
ming the cut.
◆
Work with the shoe pressed against the workpiece.
Note: Take care not to allow the blade tips to overheat.
Using the sight guide (fi g. F)
The tool is equipped with a sight guide for straight cutting (25).
◆
Adjust the sight guide as described below.
◆
Align the left edge of the guides (25) with the cutting
line (26).
Dust extraction
An adaptor is required to connect a vacuum cleaner or dust
extractor to the tool.
◆
Insert the dust extraction adaptor into the saw dust
outlet (10).
◆
Connect the vacuum cleaner hose to the adaptor.
Hints for optimum use
◆
Always use the appropriate type of saw blade for the
workpiece material and type of cut.
◆
Always hold the tool with both hands.
◆
Let the blade run freely for a few seconds before
starting the cut.
◆
Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while perfor-
ming the cut.
◆
Work with the shoe pressed against the workpiece.
◆
As some splintering along the line of cut on the top side
of the workpiece cannot be avoided, cut on the side
where splintering is acceptable.
